Greetings, Brethren!!!

Last Sunday, March 7, Beacon Lodge No. 213 led the Masonic District RXI-A to a Family Fun Run.  It was well attended by brethren, sisters, sons, daughters, and friends of Masons.  The event had several categories from 3k, 1.5k and 750m Run/Walk for all ages.  It was held at the Rancho Palos Verdes (RPV) Countryclub, Ma-a, near Crocodile Park.  Datu Bago Lodge No. 197 handed the participants some energy drink courtesy of VW Abelardo "Billy" L. Aportadera, Jr.

After the Fun Run, we had Fellowship with families and friends, where we enjoyed lugaw and hard-boiled eggs courtesy of Podomo Lodge No. 294.  This was then followed by raffle give-aways, courtesy of Beacon Lodge No. 213.  Bethel No. 6 Job's Daughters International (JDI) led by their Honored Queen, Kim Bermudez also sold cake raffle tickets as fund raising for their 13th JDI Annual Session, which will be held here in Davao City on April 30 to May 2.  The drawing of the cake raffle will be on March 21, time and venue will be announced.  WM Danilo "Boyet" G. Bernardo, Jr. (Beacon 213) then declared the Sportfest 2010 opened.

All lodges, please be advised that it's "KKB" during game proper and lunch on opening day.  However, there will be light breakfast after the Fun Run courtesy of Podomo 294 - lugaw and boiled eggs.  Beacon 213 will also order 50 small packed lunches for children to allow us free use of the clubhouse.  Free flowing Green Iced Tea will also be served.  We are encouraged to bring ONLY bottled water and juice in tetra packs as this are the only drinks free of corkage.  See you all there!

The Fun Run will be around the perimeter area of Palos Verdes, and you can run or walk, whichever ever you wish.  There will be no registration fees, you just need to get a Race Number, which will entitle you to a raffle.  There will be prizes for ALL participants with Race Numbers!

Also, our daughters of Bethel No. 6 Job's Daughters International are preparing for their Annual Rally which will be held here on April 30 to May 2 at the Brokenshire Convention Center.  In this connection, they are selling cake raffle tickets to raise funds for this worthy undertaking.  They will be with us during our Sportfest, and I enjoin everyone to please support our daughters.  Let us also mark our calendars and attend their Annual Rally.

Keep tuned in for more updates!
